Really enjoyed it 🎣🐊

Voice of experience and maturity. Sardines on singles get my vote every time. Thanks for sticking you're head above the trenches.

Great video as always 👍 Like you, not to fussed about lures as I like to see those big floats going under. I am certainly considering single hooks off the back off the video. I already use single trebles when paternostering. So seems a natural progression.

Nice content mark. I personally use two j hooks or single J depending on the waters bait fish stamp and see little hook up rate changes from trebles. That said when using double js it's notable how often it's the end hook that connects. Don't even carry trebles now.

A great watch, full of info, years of experience showing and some cracking fish 👍

I feel a lot happier knowing why you fish singles now you’ve explained it hope you catch a big pike this season

I've started fishing a small river with some decent pike, but they have very little interest in static baits on the bottom. Lots of follows as I wind in, or bite offs if roach fishing. Going to try a paternoster now the river's up to get more movement in the flow.

Good video as always.
I slightly disagree with focusing on one or two venues it's being on the most productive venue for the condition for me is key.
I had upper doubles from about 6 venues last year just by timing my venues right.
This is especially important for me struggling to find venues that's not flooded or too pressured.
I have also seen Mick brown targets a fair few venues in one day if it's not producing he targets another venue and it gets results.

Although if the conditions are good throughout the season then concentrating on a few venues makes sense.

I was the bloke on the chippy run.
I had 13 or 14 not quite sure as I like to get a picture of every fish but I believe I am missing a photo.
Biggest for me was only a low double.

Tight lines for next time.👍

Great video Mark keep them coming. Do you hook the bait through the head with circle hooks? What bite indicators do you use/recommend? Thanks
